The coleus is great for kids and as a bedding plant in gardening. Learn about growing coleus plants from a horticulturist in this free gardening video on flowering and bedding plants.

Chicagoland Gardening Magazine editor Carolyn Ulrich discusses the how she uses Iresine and Coleus effectively as yellow-leaved plants.

Plants with bright flowers aren't the only way to introduce color into a landscape. In this edition of Get It Growing, LSU AgCenter horticulturist Dan Gill shows the colorful coleus -- a plant with leaves and foliage that continually remain colorful.

Filmed over 38 minutes, this is time lapsed into just 19 seconds. The coleus was droopy and needed water at the beginning. It was liberally watered and over the next 38 minutes, the leaves perked up. This film is a quick version of that. No edits were done in the film. The sun and clouds create a great background light show.

Kini umum dibudidayakan berbagai jenis tanaman hias dengan daun sebagai pembentuk keindahan. Jenis ini cukup bervariasi, mulai dari tanaman hias yang pada umumnya didominasi warna hijau, seperti Miana atau Coleus (Coleus hybrid) yang tampil memikat dengan warna-warna kontras. Kehadiranya di taman akan memberi nuansa lebih semarak. Cocok ditanam masal sebagai tanaman hamparan atau border. Demikian juga kaktus (jenis kaktus mote, udang, dan cecak), Aglaonema atau dikenal dengan sri rejeki hingga tanaman hias gantung, semacam kapasan, katerlak, Adiantum atau suplir, Anthurium crystallinum atau kuping gajah dan varigata. Jenis tanaman hias ini memerlukan dosis Nitrogen (N) pada komposisi dominan terhadap P2O5 maupun Kalium (K2O) ditambah dengan kandungan Magnecium (Mg), Sulfur (S) dan Calcium (Ca) serta Micro Element (TE) - sebagaimana terdapat pada pupuk Gramafix Tanaman Hias Daun ( 22-7-11- 2-4-3 +1)

The bright lime green foliage of this Heuchera helps to enliven darkened areas of the garden. It is a hardy perennial that looks great planted in a generous sweep with the coppery purple leaves of Catlin's Giant Ajuga. I also like to use it as a replacement for coleus in small combination planters. Without constant pruning, coleus can become a container thug, taking over the display. Dolce™ Key Lime Pie has better manners, staying as a compact mound of foliage while adding an electrifying accent without overwhelming its neighbors. In spring abundant spires of peach bell-shaped flowers appear making the plant even more charming.

Create a dark and remote lair for your mythical fire-breathing dragon where Dragon Trees sprout from white dragon's eggs to form sword-like leaves. If you cut them, they will "bleed." In addition to two spectacular plants named after dragons (including one of the only black-leaved plants in the world, Black Dragon Coleus), this kit comes with a pet dragon, lava rock, and blood rock.

When I'm designing a garden, I always fall back on a few basic principles. One of the most important is establishing a strong framework of small trees, shrubs and perennials as a backdrop. Then I leave the foreground open for planting of seasonal color, this is usually in the form of annuals. And these days, there are so many varieties to choose from, whether you're gardening in sun, or shade. For sun, I like using cool colors, like blue salvia, pale yellow marigolds and white vinca. I also enjoy using petunias in sun, especially these versatile Storm Petunias that self clean. The dark purple ones look great paired up with Kiss Gazania. For shade, lighter colors always seem to stand out better, so I like to use pale colored impatiens, browallia, and this little plant called torenia. Coleus perform great in the shade and I'm particularly fond of a series called Stained Glassworks by The Flower Fields. Now when I plant my annuals, I like to plant in pockets, or drifts, depending on the size of the garden, five to six plants. And I space them eight to ten, maybe twelve inches a part for maximum coverage. One thing you may want to keep in mind is not to fall into a rut of planting the same annuals in the same place year after year. By mixing it up, you can stay one step ahead of pests. Another thing I like to do is under-plant my annuals with bulbs in the fall, so in the spring I have tulips and daffodils coming up through annuals plants, like pansies. It's a great combination. P.
